Including their FLAC soundtracks?

never downloaded soundtracks from emuparadise

Just found out that EMUparadise is still up if you use the workaround for downloading games. Thank god.

You mean the direct link method?

They seemed to have all the golden oldies. It was quite an appealing proposition, for someone (like me) who could only ever yank the watered-down stuff from the ether 'till now.

It's a workaround script that must be installed using a plugin I found after searching the web. Apparently EMU paradise's games are still stored on their servers. I tried it on Monster Hunter Freedom & Freedom Unite and they both work.

Tapermonkey for Chrome

Greasemonkey for firefox

The Script, just install

Just tried downloading a few mp3's and flacs and they're all unavailable.

Been playing around with Citra. Wow, those JIT features really resulted in a nice speed up since the last time I played it about 2-3 years ago. Was even able to play a few minutes of that monster of a demanding game Monster Hunter Ultimate 4 at 100% speed, providing I didn't go too crazy with bumping up the internal resolution (native is fine but butt ugly).

Did retroarch allow you to change rendering resolutin? I've downloaded OpenEmu and it is pretty great, but has very little graphical options and no change for rendering resolution.

it's emu-specific in retroarch, some have that and some don't

I still say OpenEmu is living on borrowed time.

Now we need to find a way to remove the vasilin filter, otherwise there is no improvement playing the game on higher resolutions.

Blue Dragon was pretty bad. Lost Odyssey, on the other hand, was pretty dope. I'll replay it for sure when it's playable on Xenia.

 

[IceyD]

i dropped lost odyssey when the children characters were introduced, but i want to give it another chance. it will get a PC remasteer announcement this year i am positive.

Interesting...I wonder if this means byuu has been considering turning all that weaponized autism on NeoGeoPocket(Color) emulation? Lord knows it's needed, the go-to emulator right now is written in Japanese for Japanese by a Japanese (similar to the absurd state of Saturn emulation until recently).

If you can't read Nipponese, what are you doing with a NGP(C) emulator?

It was released in the States. "Only" the color model, but that's the one that took off (the B+W original bombed so hard it only got like six games...That's total, not per-region).

 

[Great Deceiver]

The NGPC was pretty sweet, I own one. Snk vs Capcom: Match of the Milennium was very good.

Never checked NGPC emulation, though.

wow, save states are great. never used them before but playing super metroid with them is very useful and a bit like cheating. It is weird that it conflicts with the games built in saving. I lost some progress from using both.

I tend to use it for games that lack a battery-backed save, such as arcade-style titles or those from the godawful "Enter Your Password Here" era. Less of a cheat that way.

It's a pity that citra doesn't have it. It think it's a rare case in which the original hardware is more save-friendly than the emulated one.

also playing Skies of Arcadia for the first time (using the free verison of redream and works like a charm), just met Ramirez. when villains go into another dimension for their attack you know it's about to hurt

I've always wanted Skies of Arcadia for the Gamecube. Seemed like an awesome little RPG.

It's really impressed me so far. The battle encounters are unfortunately very tiresome and without emulation's fastforward it could be a deal breaker for some. But the structure of the game is incredible and really well paced between story scenarios and the freedom to explore.

The encounter rate was one of the things dialed down for the 'Legends' release on the 'cube.
